Bill, when you say embossed stamps, do you mean the stamp itself has raised letters so it produces an incised design in the clay? Or the opposite!?
I am not great on spatial relations (not helpful in a potter!)! I can see that if the stamp itself is incised, to give a raised design on the clay, then it needs to have a border around it, presumably a circle. And if the stamp has a raised design, the design in the clay will be incised, with the letters impressed into the clay, with n o circle around it needed.
Is that right??
Thank you for helping this old lady! Who has for many years just written her name in the clay with a pencil. At this late stage, I'd like to look sort of professional, even though I do not sell any of my pots!
